The effects of human activity on the environment, and in this case on the climate, must be researched, understood and, accordingly, minimised when those effects are adverse. The large gap between cost and benefit involved in such study must always be borne in mind, however.
Against this backdrop, the role that the EU has been playing in international efforts to combat climate change is cause for satisfaction and should be duly acknowledged.
It is not enough, however, to have good intentions or to sign protocols if they are not complied with in reality, and particularly if there is no means of penalising non-compliance.
